Saint-Emilion Premier Grand Cru Classé A

2017 Chateau Figeac, Saint-Emilion Grand Cru, France

The genius of Château-Figeac

Château-Figeac owes its unique character to the unique combination of three ridges of Günzian gravel with clay subsoils, several microclimates, and a grape variety composed of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Merlot. This original blend, dominated by 2/3 Cabernets, gives the wine structure, finesse, freshness and smoothness. Since the beginning of this century, Château-Figeac wine has been able to make itself available from its first years with a more caressing mouthfeel without losing its incomparable verticality over the years.
Its longevity over several decades is exceptional, with an inimitable and complex bouquet that reveals itself over time.

Château-Figeac embrace eternity

Château-Figeac has always been recognized as one of the great Bordeaux wines which evolve best over time, gaining a tasty and delicious complexity over the years. It can be enjoyed both in its first years and after several decades.
We first appreciate the dress with deep purple shades in imperial tones. The nose presents a crazy, merlot charm in its youth, which gives way to a striking depth of nature to satisfy all Cabernet lovers.

Its aromas transcribe the lightness of its soils which results in a very subtle airy olfaction: peony, infused fruits, and graphite demonstrate a beautiful vitality. The 2/3 Cabernets literally sculpt the material, strengthening the base from the mid-palate, developing the long, tense, vibrant spine, with very pure mineral notes on the finish. The touch of satiny and pulpy tannin perfectly dresses the whole, in a very haute couture style... Over the years the wine takes on flavors of tobacco leaf, and some nuances of black truffle while retaining an incomparable fruit freshness. We then reach perfection.

Production was down by half this year—only producing 55,000 bottles. Made from 43% Cabernet Sauvignon, 47% Merlot, and 10% Cabernet Franc, the deep garnet-purple colored 2017 Figeac gives up expressive notes of black cherries, plum preserves, black raspberries, and kirsch, giving way to hints of dried leaves, cinnamon toast, and warm cassis plus a waft of lavender. Medium-bodied, the palate has wonderful vibrancy with a refreshing line cutting through the crunchy black fruits and a firm, finely-grained frame, finishing long and spicy.
